X-clusive: Pendulum's Guide To Using A Talk-Box

added on Sat 05 Jul 2008 at 16:22

Made famous by the classic rock generation, Pendulum's new single features a talk-box. Here's their somewhat graphic guide to using it... Approach with caution.

Everyone from Zappa to Aerosmith to Bon Jovi have used the tube-in-mouth-guitar-sounds-like-it's-talking machine but right here, right now, Pendulum have a quick tutorial as to how best to 'play' the lead guitarists favourite weird effect unit. Hmmm...

"OK put it this way, if you're any good at deepthroat that probably comes in handy. Put the tube right down there, try not to gag and work on thoses reflexes

"That's what The Otherside is. That place you don't want to go as a straight male dude... but the place we've already gone in the interview!"[Listen]

Listen again to the whole interview as the band talk about world domination, their single, writing new material and send a special message to Xfm's resident Remix-master Eddy Temple-Morris by clicking the links below,
